Job Training Quality: New Standards and Leader List for Providers.

This bill establishes a two-tiered quality rating system for job training providers receiving federal funds, creating a "Workforce Innovation Leaders List" (WIL). This change ensures citizens using training vouchers have access to clear performance data, including employment rates and graduate earnings, making it easier to choose high-quality programs. Providers failing to meet high performance standards or report data risk losing eligibility for federal funding.
Key points
A new federal "Workforce Innovation Leaders List" (WIL) is created to highlight training programs achieving exceptionally high employment and earnings outcomes for participants.
All training providers must publicly report detailed performance data, including program completion rates (80% required for WIL) and employment rates (65% required for WIL).
To qualify for the WIL list, programs must demonstrate that graduates earn at least 20% more than local high school graduates.
Citizens can easily identify top-performing programs, as WIL providers are allowed to display a special "Seal for Exceptional Performance."
